I just got a ban for "encouraging violence". Someone asked "what will you do to celebrate when he dies?" Someone else started talking about how they have a fantasy about getting the death note and how they'd put that to use. I chimed in with my silly fantasy of using a seance to end politicians' careers by getting them possessed by the ghost of GG Allin, and enjoying the mayhem that would ensue.

So, anyway, right after that, I found out that all the people who were so transgressive to have actually liked that comment of mine can, as of a couple days ago, expect punishment as well. How draconian.

And so that was that. No sense in being lorded over on the internet by the same people who run HOAs. It'll be fun watching Reddit flush itself down the toilet from over here, I expect.

Got perma-banned from a 15 year old account for joking about Elon Musk needing to get Luigi-ed. Fuck that place. Never going back.

Ya I had a 12 year old account and 90% of my posts were about electronics and chemistry stuff. 90% of my comments were responding to people asking questions about my hobby stuff. Permabanned for enciting violence, when Trump said he wanted to annex Canada and I said we needed to prepare for war lol. FUCK REDDIT.

Elon needs to have a come to Luigi moment. Welcome to the free internet, sibling. Btw fyi, .world tends to be a little more aggressively moderated than some other instances like .ee; it's nowhere near Reddit, and I wouldn't even say it's problematic, but folks have taken issue with their moderation before.

It's a bit of give and take, but I doubt you'll encounter a problem. If you do, just hop servers.

And watch out for .ml of course.

Similar situation here. Nice to see all the like minded folks though!
